Panel 1 Alister from a rooftop looks towards the church on the hill. Darkness consumes the sky but there is a small light piercing the sky above the church. Behind Alister sits his hovercycle. His sword is in its sheath on his back.

ALISTER I can’t believe it’s been 10 years since all this began, and I still try to do good, but all I want to do is rest. Rest it seems to be all I think of when I should be thinking of this city; think of my city. I’m the one, the person that was chosen. I was the one born to this family. I must keep my head up high when it seems this war will never end. I know, however, that it will end. I don’t know how I don’t know when, but what I do know is that it will end when you are ready. This building so many times I stood right here this spot, and gazed out into the city, to hear the cries of the people below. Oh God God these dark skies I’m sick of them. I want to see the sun again. I want to see more than the sliver of light that you shine on the church. Oh, that church that changed my life. God why did you put it on that hill? Did you have people build it so that you didn’t have to move the hill? Like the Bible said that you can move mountains. Why am I still doing this? Why am I again alone I thought you would never leave or forsake me?

Page 2 Page 2: 2975A.D. Alister flashes back to when he finds out about his parents and sisters death.

Panel 1 Taking up the top 3rd of the page: You see a church on the front of it, it says “Harvest Church;” behind the church in the distance you see the church on the hill.

ALISTER I remember how I spiraled out of control at least my life did. Okay, I did too. It was at the church my family had gone to for years. I had gone when I was young, but when I became a teenager they let me decide what I wanted to do. So I stopped going.

Panel 2 Taking up the middle of the page: Inside the church, people standing, some with their hands up in the air, as they are singing.

ALISTER I thought it was strange to see people raise their hands and jump up and down praising a being that one couldn’t see.

Panel 3 Taking up the bottom 3rd of the page: Inside the church, people sitting as the preacher is standing at his pulpit preaching.

ALISTER As I recall the last service, for what I was told later. Was talking about…

PASTOR Today we are going to talk about the love of God, and his forgiveness.

Panel 1 People are leaving the church but a few are still standing around talking. The pastor comes up to a couple and their daughter.

PASTOR Where’s your son Alister.

MOTHER He didn’t want to come; he says there is no God.

PASTOR Oh, he is in the stage of his life like others have been. The stage that things that we can’t see must be none existent or not real.

Panel 2 Taking most of the page the church explodes.

Panel 3 Alister stands at the funeral, a tear rolling down his cheek.

ALISTER I can still remember what I thought at the funeral.

ALISTER (thinking) Mom gave me a choice to go with them, but I didn’t. Because I didn’t, I mean I don’t believe in God. This would have never happened if there was a God.

ALISTER (CON’T) Oh my thoughts went crazy that day, but that was the day my path would split and I would go down the road that had no path. I was making my own way. Or this is what I thought.

Panel 1 Alister hears screams. Alister shakes his head as if he was trying to wake himself up from sleeping (dreaming).

ALISTER What in the hell…

Panel 2 He jumps on his hovercycle.

ALISTER That was a tortuous scream.

Panel 3 Panel 3: He goes down the road, Screams erupt again, he travels to where the screams have come from.

ALISTER Who ever this person is they sound like hell has come to take there soul.

ALISTER (CON’T) This of course is all to common today, but there still was something in the scream.

Panel 4 Panel 4: He sees that there is a girl running as fast as she can.

Panel 5 Panel 5: Behind her is a man chasing her. Alister with his spiritual sight can see that the man is possessed by a demon. (Need to somehow show that he is a man and that he has maybe a silhouette of a demon.

MAN Come here limitless bitch.

WOMAN Aaaaahh!!!

Page 5 Page 5

Panel 1 Panel 1: Alister up close.

ALISTER (says to himself) This is sure getting old. These demons will never learn.

Panel 2 Panel 2: Alister drives ahead of the girl and man and stops his hovercycle in front of the girl.

ALISTER (saying to himself) I can’t let this girl be captured, I just can’t.

DEMON I’m taking this girl and I’m going to sacrifice her and let my father have her soul.

ALISTER There is only one Father.

DEMON Ha I’m not talking about him I’m talking about my father Satan.

Panel 6 Panel 6: The demon jumps out the window.

Panel 7 Panel 7: Alister looks out the window and sees nothing.

ALISTER I…I didn’t, I couldn’t save her.

Panel 1 Panel 1: Alister puts his sword back in his sheath and starts to walk down the stairs.

ALISTER Why? Why?

Panel 2 Panel 2: As Alister walks out of the building.

ALISTER What is wrong with me? Why, couldn’t I save that girl?”

Panel 3 Panel 3: Alister arrives back at his hovercycle.

ALISTER God what’s going on? I have never not defeated a fow with this sword. What in the world is going on?

Panel 4 Panel 4: Alister flies off.

ALISTER I never seen a demon rip off human flesh like it was cloths. And then I wasn’t able to save not only a soul but the girl. The girl looked so, I don’t know what’s wrong with me. AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!

Panel 5 Panel 5: Alister sees the church on the hill the light that pireced through the darkness seemed to be getting smaller.

Today I’m going to talk about Celtx.Celtx is a free (if you want to support you can pay) scriptwriting software. This is a free version unlike Final Draft where you do have to pay a lot of money. It does do almost everything as if it were Final Draft. I use Celtx for my comic book scripts not only does it have an option for comic books. They also have an app for Android and iOS for those apple fans. This is great because you can edit and create new scripts everywhere.You can sync your scripts from desktop to tablet. It’s great when you don’t want to lose a thing.

On there website they state:

Take charge of your workflow.celtx is the world’s first all in one pre-production system. It replaces ‘paper & binder’ with a digital approach that’s more complete, simpler to work with, and easier to share.

It’s great to have something that is easy to learn and great at the low price of free. The app is cheap compared to Final Draft oh, wait, they don’t have an app. Celtx’s app is 5$. It’s cheap I know. My artists Corey Clover likes how he can understand what I’m going for when the script is in a format and not just typed up as a story.

So if you’re looking for a script program that gives you the ease of script writing this is it. It also has formats for again comic book, Film, Audio-Visual, Theatre, Audio Play, Storyboard, Novel.

I was asked why I was doing a blog if it didn’t deal with what I’m doing and that is writing. Why aren’t you talking or showing off some of what you write? So I decided since I want to be a comic book writer (or at least it’s my main focus right now) that I would put something up for everyone to see and hear me talk about it. That I did in a previous post.

Now it’s up to you!

Do you want to hear about my comic book writing or would you like to see a sample script or just other writing? Let me know in the comments below.

The video that I watched had some good steps and thoughts that I actually never took into my own thoughts about. Now when you want to be a comic book writer that I need to do them all the time, and I need to write and write, and also to read a lot of comics This I knew. However, I never thought of becoming friends or keeping up with the editor of the comics. Moreover, to write about a character that is known, but not necessarily a franchise character for that comic book company.

If you can get your writing out and become a name somewhere else this will help in the comic book writing, and so I’m going to write and try to get my name out there in any way I can.

When watching football it reminds me of the knights and how, with their armor, they tried to defeat one another. It’s funny how certain things can bring up other things in one’s mind. Just as if it were a dream.
